Prompted by fast multiplying needs of the hour, ”Bihar College of Teacher Education” has been in efforts to cope-up with the prevailing set-up of the people's mind to prepare a solid base for their children so as to enable them to match with national and international competitive atmosphere

The scarcity of trained teachers is quite evident from the fact that the vacancy announced and published as such by the Government of Bihar. Turning to the eastern region, we have found that the neighbouring states like Bengal, Orissa and other states, do have a huge demand of such hands but at present there is no way to get trained teachers for teaching in Government Sector with similar situation prevailing in Private Sector too.

In near future, the National Council for Teacher Education is thinking of improvement in Indian Education pattern for meeting competition on global scale. To add to the intensity and gravity of the problem aforesaid, the private sector, affiliated and non affiliated institutions up to + 2 level will also make it mandatory on the teachers to be appointed that they must be trained as per the pattern mentioned above. In view of the situation prevailing on the national and international horizon, "Bihar College of Teacher Education" is preparing in the way to train teachers. This institute will leave no stone unturned to achieve the goal by providing all facilities to the trainees in right earnest.
